BALTIMORE – UMBC women's soccer
dropped its third-straight contest on Sunday afternoon, as
Longwood's Kelsey Pardue scored the lone goal in a 1-0 victory at
the Retriever Soccer Park. The Retrievers outshot the Lancers in
the contest 9-7, with LU's goal coming on its only shot of the
second half.

Longwood improves to 4-2 on the year, while UMBC falls to
1-6-1.

The two teams played a scoreless first half, despite scoring
opportunities on both ends. The Retrievers came out of the break
aggressive, maintaining possession in Lancer territory, however it
was Longwood that would strike for the game-winner at the 57:27
mark. A long through ball from Kelsey McDonald found Pardue ahead
of the pack. Pardue dribbled down and was able to beat UMBC
goalkeeper Lauren Kadet (Oakville, Ontario/St. Thomas
Aquinas), placing the ball inside the far right post for her first
goal of the season.

The Retrievers continued to put pressure on the Lancers
throughout the final stanza and nearly tied it up in the 72nd
minute when a foul was called on LU keeper Kyra Byron for grabbing
the ball outside of the box. Freshman back Alexa
Quaranta (Baltimore, Md./Perry Hall) put a touch on the ball
on the free kick to set up a shot for senior forward Rachel
McKee (Ellicott City, Md./Mount Hebron), but Byron made the
stop to preserve the one goal lead.

UMBC hits the road again on Friday, Sept. 14 when it takes on
VCU, marking the final non-conference game of the season for the
Retrievers.
